Skwala RS Jacket
Skwala
The Skwala RS Wading Jacket is a premium waterproof fly fishing jacket designed for anglers who won’t back down from cold, wet, or fast-changing conditions. Constructed with a 3-layer stretch textile, it features a waterproof, breathable laminate and a durable backer, ensuring full protection without sacrificing comfort or mobility. Fully-taped seams and articulated sleeves deliver reliable weather resistance with effortless movement — essential whether you're double-hauling streamers or bushwhacking into remote water.
The jacket’s dual-layer cuff system locks out water while maintaining dexterity, and the adjustable drop hood prevents collar bunching when fully zipped. With fleece-lined hand-warming pockets, zippered chest and internal storage, and pass-through access to RS Waders' heat-retaining system, it's a fly angler’s ideal companion. Ultrasuede around the collar provides a plush finish, while streamlined forceps tabs keep your tools handy without the clutter.
Here is what Skwala has to say about their Skwala RS Jacket:
Built for anglers who sleep in their trucks but live on the water, the RS Jacket keeps you dry day after day, season after season, fish after fish, river after river.
The RS Jacket sets a new standard for durability, water resistance, and comfort no matter how long the day or the season. Designed to pair with our RS Waders, the RS Jacket provides sanctuary in even the harshest conditions. Featuring a fully taped and stretch-woven internal wrist cuff in addition to a comfortable and easily adjustable outer cuff, your arms will never be wet again. The unique pass through pockets allow cold hands access to body heat trapped in the waders’ warming pockets. The generous drop hood keeps water off your face in a downpour but won’t bunch around your neck when the jacket is fully zipped and the hood is down. If you relentlessly pursue fish, even on days when most anglers hide behind their tying benches, the RS Jacket will help you stay on the water longer.
Intended as your cold weather solution, the RS jacket is designed to fit over an insulation piece like a Fusion Hybrid or 3/2 Puffy and your waders and is sized up about a half size to accommodate the extra bulk.
- Fully adjustable drop hood prevents hood from bunching around the back of the neck when fully zipped. Hidden Cohaesive® hood adjusters are located in exterior chest pockets to prevent line snagging
